<center><h1>Truths verdant, 
and those of rust</h1><h1>I.</h1>
Snowflakes leisurely 
Are taught briskness
& intructed in
The superfluous<br>
By the city's 
Pyromanic bloodstream
(Like a magnifying glass
For the razing sun.)
<h1>II.</h1>
Interspersed
With other cosmic
Phenomena<br>
Microscopic
On the scale of
Dynasties<br>
Intraspersed
An infinite loop
Of facets<br>
Macrocosmic
Through the lens
Holographic<br>
<h1>III.</h1>
Rust peels off
The inertiatic past,<br>
Lethargic with years
Misunderstood.<br>
Who will teach
These jagged truths<br>
That dye the wind
Dark crimson?</center>
